Food For Thought?

Was random shifting through the web when this article where "Bon Appetit" was mentioned in 23 languages . Felt that it was interesting . So I am sharing it here .

How to say Bon Appétit in 23 other Languages

Food for thought:
Probably all languages have formulaic utterances which are said on certain occasions, e.g. French 'bon appétit!' – "good appetite" said to guests at the dinner table, or French 'bon voyage' – "good trip", said to travellers. The fact that some of these have been borrowed into English from other languages, like French, is indicative of the fact that English does not have ready-made concise equivalent formulas for these occasions.

Commonly used substitutes in English are: 'Enjoy your Meal!' or perhaps the host saying: 'Do start' or 'Don't wait'.

Here are some some equivalents in other Languages:

Catalan	Bon profit!
Croatian	Dobar tek!
Danish	Velbekomme!
Dutch	Smakelijk eten!
French	Bon appétit!
German	Guten appetit!
Hebrew (transliterated)	Bete'avon!
Hungarian	Jó étvágyat!
Italian	Buon appetito!
Japanese (transliterated)	Itadakimas!
Korean (transliterated)	Mani deuseyo!
Lithuanian	Gero apetito!/Skanaus!
Modern Greek (transliterated)	Kale orexe!
Norwegian	Vær så god!
Persian	Noosh-e jan!
Polish	Smacznego!
Portuguese	Bom apetite!
Russian (transliterated)	Priiatnogo appetita!
Serbian (transliterated)	Prijatno!
Spanish	¡Buen provecho!
Swedish	Smaklig måltid!
Turkish	Afiyet olson!
Yiddish (transliterated)	Est gezunterhayt!

What I like about Safari

Yes , people finally safari browser is available for windows and it is damn fast and the UI is very good.I tested it out when it was in beta stages but it crashed a few times (probably because of my low virtual memory). Now in its latest supposedly 3.1 release it is awesome.

You can download it here : Download Safari

So the pluses are:-
==>Great UI
==>Great Speed
==>Good Spell and grammar checker
==>The pages look much better in it as the font-faces are pleasant.


Wait there is something more:Only for Geeks though:-

Go to Edit Menu==>Advanced Tab==>Check the check box named "show Develop Menu" and viola it is a web developers dream come true.


How to effectively use this advanced feature

Step 1;-Go to any web page,

Step 2 :-Click Develop menu

Step 3 :-Things you can do here are many like :-Set Default web browser ,make the safari identify itself as plethora of other browsers like IE7,IE6,Firefox,Opera etc:,also shows how the page will show up on your iphone,
